It is the big return to competition for the Lebrun brothers after the Olympic Games. The two French table tennis champions will participate in the WTT China Smash 2024 on ThursdaySeptember 26 in China, Beijing. Alexis and Flix will defend their status as Olympic medalists for the first time. And the two brothers arrive in a country where they are very popular. The Chinese, lovers of ping pong, have developed a passion for the two French.

In the large gymnasium of the Chaoyang district, ping-pong enthusiasts exercise as they do every morning. Everyone knows the Lebrun brothers. There is a mixture of admiration and fascination: “They play very well, their techniques are very advanced. Flix in particular has a way of holding the racket in a pen holder while serving, it is a playing style that is common in China. We appreciate their style, their technique and their fighting spirit. In China we call them 'the glasses brothers' because it is rare here to play ping-pong with glasses.”

In sports, the Chinese, very nationalistic, first defend their athletes, but Alexis and Flix seem to be exceptions. Even though the two brothers clearly pose a threat to Chinese supremacy in ping pong: “China is the big ping-pong country. But it's good to see that that's the case foreign players who have such a level and who can promote ping pong all over the world.”

The Chinese in particular are fans of the two French. “I think they are cute, they are very relaxed and relaxed when they arrive in the competition, not like the Chinese players who remain discreet”said one of them. “The two brothers, Alexis Lebrun and Felix Lebrun, we love you”adds another.

The Lebrun brothers have adapted to their Chinese popularity by opening two accounts on Weibo a year ago, the Chinese X. Flix is ​​already followed by 446000 people, almost twice as many as Kylian Mbapp. On Tuesday, the two brothers published a photo for their Chinese fans to announce their arrival in Beijing. Internet users responded by the hundreds with welcome messages.

The tickets for the first matches of the French at the tournament in Beijing were sold out within a few minutes. Flix and Alexis Lebrun will also play together in doubles, with the status of No. 2 seed in the tournament. After this Smash in Beijing, which ends on Sunday, October 6, the Lebrun brothers are aiming for the European Championships, from October 15 to 20 in Linz, Austria.
